Abstract

This study explores the integration of STEM education as a tool for teaching the concept of magnetism to kindergarten children. The research highlights the importance of engaging young learners through hands-on activities and creative storytelling, which allows them to express their understanding of magnetism based on their everyday experiences. The findings indicate that children initially possess misconceptions about magnets, such as believing that they attract all metals and that larger magnets are inherently stronger than smaller ones. Children are guided to correct these misconceptions and better understand magnetic properties through structured activities, such as drawing objects attracted and repelled by magnets. Artificial intelligence tools, such as ChatGPT and ideogram.ai, facilitate collaborative storytelling, enabling children to create illustrated narratives about magnets and enhancing their engagement and creativity. The study also emphasizes the role of technology in supporting children’s learning processes, allowing them to visualize and present their findings innovatively, such as through videos and presentations. Moreover, the research identifies the need for further exploration of children’s interactions with magnets and the effectiveness of AI in teaching complex scientific concepts to preschoolers. The results suggest that active participation in STEM activities significantly boosts children’s confidence and interest in science, laying a foundation for future engagement in STEM fields. Overall, this paper contributes valuable insights into the pedagogical strategies that can enhance the teaching of magnetism in early childhood education, advocating for the continued integration of technology and creative methods in the learning process.

Abstract

In the literature, lack of conceptual understanding makes it difficult for students to relate chemistry to their learning experience, leading to misconceptions. Misconceptions are defined as phenomena where students have concepts that differ from scientific concepts. Misconceptions will affect how students construct scientific knowledge in the next learning material. Therefore, the study of this misconception is an important concern in the field of education. The purpose of this study was to identify students’ misconceptions on electrolysis material. The instrument used in the study was a two-tier diagnostic test consisting of 10 questions at the first level and supporting reasons at the second level. The questions contained in this instrument are taken from previous research. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach involving 55 students from class XII Analytical Chemistry in one of the vocational high schools in Cilegon City. The results showed that out of a total of 55 students, there were students who understood the concept as much as 34%, students who experienced misconceptions as much as 30.73%, students who understood partially as much as 9.82% and students who did not understand the concept as much as 25.45%.

Abstract

Reflective practice is a fundamental pillar of contemporary nursing education, crucial for developing competent, autonomous, and reflective practitioners. It empowers nursing students to critically analyze complex healthcare scenarios, make evidence-based decisions within their professional domain, and implement effective interventions both independently and as part of multidisciplinary teams. Reflective practice also bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, fostering the critical thinking skills vital to delivering high-quality patient care. This study examines nursing students’ understanding of reflective practice and its integration into the curriculum at the Higher Institute of Nursing Professions and Health Technology (ISPITS) in Al Hoceima. A structured survey was administered to 100 ISPITS students to evaluate their perceptions and knowledge of reflective practice. The findings revealed notable ambiguities in students’ understanding of the concept, highlighting a lack of clarity regarding its objectives and methods. Furthermore, significant gaps were identified in the practical application of reflective practice within the educational framework. These challenges are exacerbated by constraints faced by instructors, such as limited resources, inadequate training in reflective teaching methods, and insufficient institutional support for the effective implementation of reflective practice. Despite these obstacles, instructors have made considerable efforts to diversify teaching methods and tools to foster student reflection, even in the absence of formal training in reflective practice. Their dedication underscores the critical need for targeted interventions. Recommendations include providing specialized training for instructors, integrating structured reflective activities into the curriculum, and cultivating an institutional culture that values and supports reflective practice. These strategies are essential to prepare nursing students to excel in dynamic healthcare environments, ensuring the delivery of safe, effective, and compassionate care.
